Diabetes Education

Diabetes is a chronic disease in which the body is unable to properly use the insulin it produces, or it is unable to produce enough insulin to meet the body’s needs.

What is Insulin?Insulin is an essential hormone produced by the pancreas that helps the body use sugar from the carbohydrate foods we eat. This sugar (glucose) is used as a source of immediate energy, or can be stored for future use.

When we eat, carbohydrate foods are broken down into glucose, a simple sugar. The broken down glucose then enters your bloodstream and contributes to the value we know as “blood glucose” or “blood sugar”. Insulin is essential to allow the glucose to enter into the body’s cells from the blood stream so it can be used for energy. Without insulin, glucose is unable to enter cells from the blood stream and begins to accumulate, creating high blood glucose levels.

Over time, high blood glucose (hyperglycemia) can cause many health complications. Because insulin is activated by blood glucose, carbohydrates stimulate insulin release far more than protein and fat. Therefore, consistent and controlled carbohydrate intake is essential for individuals with diabetes to prevent complications.

Type 2 DiabetesThe body fails to properly use the insulin it produces. Over time, the body might discontinue insulin production altogether.

Gestational DiabetesThis type of diabetes develops during pregnancy (gestation). In gestational diabetes, blood glucose usually returns to normal soon after the delivery. Individuals who have had gestational diabetes are at risk for developing type 2 diabetes.
